Sered, so how much would you say it'll cost to just open up the pass side of an E92 exhaust and remove 75% of its packing and then install it? I can't recall if you posted how much you paid, and I thought if you also opened up the driver's side just to peek inside or not (which I'd skip).

I paid $200, but it would have been a good bit less if they only needed to do the passenger-side.

I have a second muffler I am in the process of removing all padding from (passenger side only). The sound of my modified setup with straight pipes has gotten much higher, and I am getting a LOT of compliments from the local group. I think its cause of the new lagfix settings in the G5 board I'm running. Anyway, it sounds great on secondary delete only, but it is pretty loud, soooo....this second set will be for when I go completely kittyless again, since if I keep it I think I'll go deaf when I go that route.

Catless DPs increase the exhaust note considerably? I have a set in my living room awaiting install still

I have catless dps with stock exhaust. With the wastegate comp on the procede at 30% it sounds pretty damn good!

Thanks! Im at 50% wgposition right no, but it rattles at idle. You can eliminate rattle by moving it either up or down from 50%, right?

Also, as the wgposition gets smaller, the loudness goes up. What is the benefit of a higher wgposition? Tip-in boost?

Back OT: Im still waiting for a definitive catless solution that makes the car louder without crazy rasp. Any more updates to custom-made BMW PE-esque exhaust solutions?. I almost pulled the trigger on Vanguards but then i heard the rasp

Edit: I don't believe WGs rattle at idle...must be something else...do you have downpipes that could be causing it?

Yes, the lower the % the less rattle. Throttle tip-in is supposedly slower but I've also heard shiv downplay this. I'm no expert here, so I'm not sure how much of an issue that really is.
